Despite the description on the Winetourism page has promised the things which are not actually offered (like light snack and production facilities and cellar tour) it was a great experience. The two stellars of it were the great wines and the fact that those were presented by the owners. We have tasted 9 wines including great Tale Riesling and magnificient Hassel GG Pinot Noir '20. Special thanks to the hosts for tolerating us being late as our visit actually ended well after the official working hours.

Perfect wine, great host and super interesting!

Perfect wine, great host and super interesting!

The wine tasting was a perfect experience! We were welcomed by the owner of Weingut Kaufmann and he showed us around the place incl. providing super interesting facts about the wine preparation. Afterwards, we spent time tasting up to 8 or 9 different wines. It was so great and tasteful that we directly bought 4 bottles to bring home. Thank you very much - we highly recommend the Weingut Kaufmann for a tasting!
